32-year-old Liezel Betitta has been arrested for cutting off her
husband’s penis with a pair of scissors because she was convinced he was
having an affair. She believed he was sexually involved with a friend’s
wife at a building from where he worked in Iloilo City, the Philippines
so after her husband, Mark, went out drinking with friends after work
then fell asleep at a friend’s house, Liezel went over there and found
him.
Mark was roused from sleep by the pain
after Liezel grabbed his manhood and sliced it off two inches from the
base. The incident happened at about 10:30 pm
on April 22 and Liezel fled the scene immediately her mission was
complete.
As blood gushed from Mark’s wound, his friends took him to the
Jesus Colmenares Memorial Hospital in the Balasan Town district,
several miles away. They told the police that the couple who have three
children argued often.
Mark was later transferred to the Western Visayas
Medical Center in Iloilo City where surgeons attempted unsuccessfully
to reattach his penis. Physicians said that because the major nerve had
already been severed there was little they could do. Tissue from the
part cut off had also already died.
Police later arrested Liezel and she told them that she had no regrets about her action.
“I
don’t regret cutting off his penis. It’s his punishment for being a
womanizer. I am ready to face the consequences of my action,” she said.
“I am tired of his womanizing. He got a new girlfriend lately.”
Investigator
Alexis Bataga from the Carles Police said that Mark wanted to press
charges against his wife. He said officers were investigating the
incident and have remanded Liezel in custody.
He added: “We could
not yet ascertain what drove her to harm her husband. The last time I
talked to his family, they told me that he was recovering.”
